We have a below check in standard_planner() (!IsParallelWorker())
which should prohibit generating parallel plan inside worker, if that
is what you are seeing, then we might need a similar check at other
places.

if ((cursorOptions & CURSOR_OPT_PARALLEL_OK) != 0 &&
IsUnderPostmaster &&
dynamic_shared_memory_type != DSM_IMPL_NONE &&
parse->commandType == CMD_SELECT &&
!parse->hasModifyingCTE &&
max_parallel_workers_per_gather > 0 &&
!IsParallelWorker() &&
!IsolationIsSerializable())
{
/* all the cheap tests pass, so scan the query tree */
glob->maxParallelHazard = max_parallel_hazard(parse);
glob->parallelModeOK = (glob->maxParallelHazard != PROPARALLEL_UNSAFE);
}
